THE PURPOSE AND GOAL:A Taste of Mater Deiis the major fundraising event for Mater Dei High School and a premiere tasting and auction benefitting all Mater Dei students. Mater Dei High School has become one of the nation's leading educational institutions thanks to the volunteer efforts and financial support of many generous constituents. The Office of Advancement and Alumni Relations serves as a vital link in connecting the school's constituencies -- alumni, students, faculty and staff, parents, past parents, grandparents, foundations, community leaders, and other friends. We invite you to join us at A Taste of Mater Dei! Mater Dei's ability to surmount challenges and realize opportunities will not rest on its traditions or solely on the strength of existing resources. Through this new fundraising venture, the school hopes to cultivate new relationships and strive to meet the educational needs of its students now and in the future. Over the last 20 years, Mater Dei’s auctions have raised over $6 million for our students.
